Ooooooh, we've been hit by a Smooth Monster

I love it!. I can't match your settings exactly because Greek units are more magical than Freedumb units. The gearing? No hope of me replicating that either, even with me doing the transmission flip (incorrectly).

When I changed the Wheel Offset back to Standard, I got a couple PP back. So maybe that is the answer.

But oh my, the suspension and handling. The fundamental Audi-Steer and aero settings makes your monster planted with a hint of oversteer at the very end of the braking phase, but only if I ask. Very fun for heavy handed drivers. Then the differential settings make for hilarious 4WD power oversteer at the exit of slow corners in low gears.

Just as with the Smoothbore Express, this one pulls like a train too. A mountain of power.

I also modified the tune for my driving style. Low RPM Turbo is good with short shifting at half the rev bar. I see why you picked the Medium RPM Turbo. That one is good for Automatic drivers.

Had a bunch of fun this week. FR Challenge is a little short but at a nice time of day and the cars suit the track, tuned Chevelle was good fun. Clubman Cup also is at a nice time of day and long enough to use some slightly slower cars, 550 PP Megane was a little too much but again a nice choice for the circuit. Turbo Sportscars can require something very fast depending on the grid you get, the RCR Civic is really quick but there's a few other surprises in the field too. I didn't have it but I think this race can have an MC20 show up too. Went with the Honda Sports VGT on SH, really nice to drive and fast enough to beat the Civic even though it started up front. One-make was boring as usual, stupidly easy because I was in the lead on lap 3 even with my car ballasted up to the real weight. Don't understand why they picked Monza when there's already a Ferrari race there. WTC 800 at High Speed Ring is one of my favourite races in the game. Love the track and the weather always keeps things interesting, you also can't go wrong racing into the sunset. Swapped Gr.4 Silvia was a bit understeery but still easily fast enough to win by 50 seconds even with the AI pitting at the right time when it rained really hard.
